And the paper mentions that mysql master-master replication doesn't offer atomicity and therefor imposes the danger of inconsistent tables. I guess if the authors would have had access to mysql 5.0 they'd used mysql cluster instead. Don't get me wrong, I think using a DB cluster for registration state is a valid approach, it's just more complicated than letting the endpoints register with all proxies in parallel.
our internal research shows that this does not work as simply as one would wish. regsitration
state may be immensly database-intensive. My personal choice is not to put it in database at all.
